We met on Shaadi.com when Ashwini sent the first interest. Initially, it didnt progress much not due to lack of compatibility, but because we didnt get the time to speak and understand each other properly.When we reconnected later, things naturally fell into place. We began having meaningful conversations about our interests, lifestyles, values, and long-term goals. Ashwini lives in Qatar and works as a Yoga teacher, while I live in India and am an entrepreneur, so time zones and schedules werent easy but the intent to make time was always there.What I deeply respect about Ashwini is how independent and grounded she is. She carries herself with grace, speaks respectfully to everyone, and balances her career, family, culture, and traditions with ease. She is a true feminist in the real sense strong, thoughtful, and rooted.Over time, through patience, honest conversations, and mutual respect, we built a strong understanding. She appreciates my independence, logic, sensibility, and the time and attention I give to our relationship. At some point, without any dramatic moment, we both simply knew this was serious.To be honest, neither of us truly believed in online matchmaking platforms. We created our profiles only because our families encouraged us to. But today, were grateful because without Shaadi.com, Im certain I would have never met such a wonderful life partner.Wed be more than happy to share our experience or provide a testimonial anytime, if it helps others believe in meaningful connections.
